Taite Ro. may occasionally request users to provide photographic identification before proceeding with their rental order.

If we cannot accept your order, we will inform you of this and refund you for the product. This might be because the product is out of stock, because of unexpected limits on our resources which we could not reasonably plan for, because we have identified an error in the price or description of the product or because we are unable to meet a delivery deadline you have specified.

We only rent to the UK. Our website is solely for the promotion of our products in the UK. Unfortunately, we do not accept orders from or deliver to addresses outside the UK.

OUR PRODUCTS

Products may vary slightly from their pictures. The images of the products on our website are for illustrative purposes only. Although we have made every effort to display the colours accurately, we cannot guarantee that a device’s display of the colours accurately reflects the colour of the products. Your product may vary slightly from those images.

DELIVERY OF PRODUCTS

The costs of delivery will be displayed to you on our website. We use Royal Mail to deliver our orders. Any delivery time or date given by Taite Ro. to the User is an estimate only.

Items booked for delivery on a Sunday through our '1 Day (Try On Only)' service will be received on the subsequent Monday. 

If the item is delivered late the user must accept delivery unless a non-delivery agreement is reached in advance between Taite Ro. and the user. We are not responsible for delivery delays outside our control. If our supply of the products is delayed by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the contract and receive a refund for any products you have paid for but not received.

The User accepts full responsibility for the safekeeping of the apparel once the item has been signed for.

DAMAGES & THEFT

If the Apparel gets lost or damaged beyond repair:

  • The User is solely responsible for the apparel they have rented and is therefore liable for any damage or loss that occurs during the rental period.

  • Regardless of whether the User is personally responsible for the damage they remain liable for the replacement of this item because in signing for their delivery they agreed to take responsibility for the apparel.

  • In assessing the replaceable value, Taite Ro. will take into account: the demand for the dress, our ability to purchase a replacement, the condition of the dress, and the rental fee that the User has already paid.

 

Theft of any item will not be tolerated. If you steal or attempt to steal any item, Taite Ro. shall be entitled to take legal action against you. 

INSURANCE

If you have taken out insurance on your item then you are covered for all repairable damages. Examples include, ripped seams, zip breaks and removable stains that require extra attention. Insurance does not cover damages where the dress must be replaced or written off entirely. In these instances customers are liable to pay the replacement dress costs. Damage assessment is at the discretion of Our expert team of seamstresses. In the rare case that the item needs to be replaced, customers are sent the damaged dress to keep once the replacement costs have been paid.

CANCELLATION

User cancellation: If the User cancels an order up to 2 weeks in advance of their chosen delivery date they are entitled to receive a full refund. Orders cancelled with less than 2 weeks’ notice are still liable to pay the rental fee, however the delivery fee will be refunded and the User will receive rental credit.

Taite Ro. cancellation: In certain circumstances we may need to cancel an order before it has been dispatched to the user. Said circumstances can include: if the apparel ordered has not been returned/or has been returned damaged by a previous customer, or if the User in question has given us cause to be concerned about their suitability to receive future rentals (e.g. frequent late returns, theft or damaged items).
